An example of South Austin, Texas Home Appreciation.

 On 6.16.2017, Austin Silent Market Realty and George Vance McGee Real Estate Agent worked as the seller's agent and helped successfully close this exact property. At the time of the ABOR active MLS sale, the property was being marketed in excellent condition in a "post home improvement flipped" state and presentation. I, GVM, distinctly remember, one of the few but frequent buyer objections was the droopy, angle slumped ceiling in the living room. Other than that, this South Austin Home (located south of hwy 290), circa South 1st was in a beautiful condition and sparkled with 4 full bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with a 1 car garage. It was plenty of house, nestled within a calm South Austin Residential neighborhood. In addition there was and still is ample fenced green backyard and lot land. The asking price per ownership started at $385,000 and dropped to $369,500 in mid year of 2017. Here is the FLYER for the at-one-time Austin Silent Market Sale Listing in South Austin.








Today, 11.2.2021 about roughly 4-5 years later, while searching the ABOR MLS System, I noticed this exact same home and property was showing as Active Abor MLS for Sale on the Market with "multiple offers and an offer deadline." The asking MLS price as of 11.2.2021 was $600,000. 

There you go ladies and gentlemen. Perhaps today's Central Austin Real Estate Lesson is to simply BUY and HOLD Central Austin Real Estate.

 

The Property is currently, as of 11.2.2021 showing as active on MLS. The Listing Agency is credited as Maria & CoCo Vargas with Keller Williams Realty cocovargas@kw.com.

Austin, Texas has a DOG PROBLEM.....

  Austin, Texas has a DOG problem (Letter I wrote and sent) Dear Austin City Council Members, Hello and well regards, Yesterday afternoon during a simple bicycle pedal exercise ride, I was physically chased by an unleashed Pitbull dog in ZILKER PARK. Then directly after recovering from almost being mauled by an unleashed pit-bull in Zilker Park, I attempted to buy a Gatorade at a nearby Barton Springs Road Market, but that didn't go well either, as an interior Market commercial customer had a massive mixed breed dog trolling through the diminutive shopping isles. Then this morning, at a Coffee shop on SoCo, there was only 1 entry way in and out, and there was another large, although more docile mixed breed dog. All of this has occurred in less than 24 hours. What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash! Not everybody like dogs, being everywhere all the time. especially within ...
